The Anglo-Spanish War was waged between the Elizabethan kingdom of England and the Spanish kingdom of Phillip II in the years 1585-1604. The most famous incident of the war was the failed invasion of England by the Spanish Armada in 1588. However, it would be incorrect to say that England won the war - nobody really won. Throughout the war Phillip II provided supplies for rebels against the crown, most notably in Ireland.

The Catholic Counter-Reformation

The Elizabethan Religious Settlement
The Act of Supremacy and the Act of Uniformity were both passed in 1558 by the parliament of Queen Elizabeth I. They were the two primary legal features of the Elizabethan Religious Settlement. The Act of Supremacy established Elizabeth as the supreme and absolute ruler of the Church of England. The Act of Uniformity established the guidelines for Christian worship in Elizabethan England. Collectively they mark the Elizabethan Religious Settlement which could be seen as an end to the worst conflicts of the Anglican Reformation.
